Highly Recommended 14 Dinner Restaurants Near Temple, Texas

Jaime Fontanella Lauzardo We had an excellent dinner at Mee Mee’s. We ordered the Pad Thai combination and the green curry, and both dishes were delicious with authentic flavors. As starters, we had the spring rolls and chicken satay – both fresh and tasty. Portions are very generous, offering great value for the price. The service was very attentive, and I also liked that you can choose your spice level, from mild up to Thai spicy, depending on your preference. Overall, a fantastic Thai restaurant in Temple with friendly service and a welcoming atmosphere.

Brittany Lanier The food here is amazing! Came here for our wedding anniversary and really enjoyed the atmosphere. The server was nice and seemed well versed in the menu as we as the wine list. Had the scallops to start, I highly recommend. They were one of the best dishes Ive had in years. Husband ordered the bone in porterhouse steak and I order the halibut. They both were cooked to perfection! Can not say enough about the food here. Great idea for a date night or celebration.

Kristi Beber We were in Temple for a meeting, and someone recommended this restaurant for sushi. Our small town doesnt have a sushi restaurant so we were really excited to find somewhere with quality rolls. Seoul Garden was wonderful! The flavors were amazing. We originally thought the pricing was a bit high, but when we saw the size of the rolls, we ended up considering the prices very fair. The quality and freshness of the fish were top notch. I highly recommend the Tuna Nachos and the Sunshine Roll. What made the meal even more relaxing and enjoyable was our server, Eva. Eva was attentive, knew the menu and genuinely a sweet young woman. Well definitely be returning to eat here.

Josh Biddly If I could give them 6 stars I would. I meet my mom for lunch and I havent been to a Cracker Barrel in several years. There was about a ten minute wait for the table witch I thought was fine. Great thing about Cracker Barrel is the environment both on the patio, in the waiting area and the dinning area. The waiting area is loaded with all kinds of excellent gifts and random things that just about anybody would love. Candles, t-shirts, Post cards, jewelry, keychains, toys, candy, specialty sodas. Just about everything is 25%-70% off witch I think is awesome. Ill be going back on payday to get several things myself. Then we were shown our table and the service was way over the top. Ive been to streak houses and fine restaurants that didnt have this kind of service. My waiter was Zachary. Guy went above and beyond and I had a phenomenal experience. I ordered the NY Strip Steak with loaded Backed potato and broccoli and the Fried Mozzarella cheese bites with ranch. Really really good! They served their buttermilk biscuits and cornbread muffins. With blackberry jam and salted butter. That was really awesome and very tasty. The steak was really phenomenal. The loaded potato surprised my expectations. Bacon strips, not bits. Scoop of sour cream and a scoop of butter. I ate the whole thing, peel and all. Zachary was the kind of cordial and overly attentive and polite that you expected from multi diamond hotel and restaurant staff. I was amazed and very impressed. So much so I had to ask to see the manager. Rair for me to do that with service. Waited less than 2 minutes and I spoke with Little Cindy. Apparently there are two Cindys. She was very kind and very encouraging. She said they strive to deliver just such experiences to everyone. I not only believe that, I know it and it shows in every facit of their restaurant. The bill was $50 for two with an appetizer and two drinks. Their tea is also really good. Im blown away and sold. The area offers Chilies, IHOP, Olive garden and Cracker Barrel. Its not even a competition in my honest opinion. The other places are not even on the same level in anything, let alone everything. I had the best dinning experience in years for far less than a $100. Thats very rare in my experience. Would absolutely recommend to everybody. Im definitely going back and soon!

Roxx Grace was amazing! Super nice, fast, kept checking on us, & was always smiling. The food was perfect. The wait was about 10min, for a table of 5, on a Thurs night. Parking for big vehicles is available at the very back, my husband drove in with his semi trailer cab.

Karan Sure! Heres a polished review for Dynasty Chinese Restaurant: Review for Dynasty Chinese Restaurant I had a great dining experience at Dynasty Chinese Restaurant! The edamame was absolutely delicious—full of flavor and prepared perfectly. The egg fried rice was also amazing, with just the right balance of seasoning and texture. If youre a fan of spicy food, be warned—when they say spicy, they mean it! Our party was seated toward the back, and the service was generally good. There was a bit of disorganization at the start, but it seemed like our server was just trying to keep up with the busy crowd. Overall, I really enjoyed my meal and plan to come back again. Definitely worth a visit if youre craving flavorful Chinese cuisine!

JR T Our new favorite place. The ribeye was perfect for date night and dont skip the chocolate dessert. Its enormous and delicious!! A little pricy but worth it for the food, service and environment.

Karley Torok True was absolutely fantastic! He was so attentive, and held great conversation. He was so sweet and funny. If I could have him every time we came here, I would love it. He made this trip so memorable! He was the greatest server I’ve ever had even comparing to any other restaurant. Loved him!

Brook Bailey Food was really good. My kids like the food they got as well. The best part of the food was the chimichanga cheesecake! I’m biased to that because I love dessert. Service was friendly and pleasant. Atmosphere was interesting. Not a lot of banners and a Mexican atmosphere that I am accustomed to. Nevertheless, it was a good place to eat at.

Jaime Fontanella Lauzardo We had a very good experience at this Chili’s. I ordered the 10 oz sirloin steak, which came with stuffed mashed potatoes and broccoli. The steak was cooked exactly as I requested and everything was flavorful. We also tried the chips & salsa, along with guacamole and white queso dips – both were very good and fresh. We ordered the 5 crispers as well, and they were very tender and well prepared. Service was kind and fast throughout our visit. There is also a tabletop machine where kids can play games, and you can conveniently pay your bill at the end of your meal without waiting for the server to bring the check. Overall, it was a great dining experience with good food and excellent service.

Briana Stowe The oldest, best place to take your family and eat. Home cooked, comfort food. The best burgers and chicken fried steak. Family owned and run. And if you like beer, they have the biggest fish bowl beers you can find!

Tacie G Taylor our server was absolutely the best! The food was great and came out hot! We are starting to really love this restaurant even though its a chain lol

Chris I always enjoy the food here. The burgers are good, the beer is cold and the wait staff is great. Hanna is usually my go to waitress. She stays on task, pays attention to detail and has a great people personality. If you want the best experience possible, ask for her.

Sherina Blett Our waitress Michaela was absolutely amazing! Super friendly and welcoming not even exaggerating when I say this was the best service I’ve ever had anywhere. She went above and beyond in every way possible, making sure we had everything we needed before we even had to ask. “Above and beyond” doesn’t even begin to describe how great she was. Truly outstanding service!
